Nowadays, it grows bigger the importance of water resource management, and so, hydrographic surveying technology in river is important because it serves basic data about river environment. And, also, the application field of GPS has been increased and expected to be more increased because of the change of the geodetic reference system to World Geodetic System. In this study, hydrographic surveying in Hwang river in Geochang is accomplished by RTK GPS and Total Station and they are compared and analyzed the both results. The section profile in river is made by Hec-Ras program and CAD. The results show it can be saved 15.3% in surveying times and the amount of surveying works can be enlarged 42.5%. And the standard error between RTK results with calibration and the results without calibration turned out as 2.1 cm. So we have a conclusion that RTK GPS is more efficient surveying method than total station in hydrographic surveying in river.

The void ratio and elastic moduli are design parameters used in geotechnical engineering to understand soil behavior. Elastic and electromagnetic waves have been used to evaluate the various soil characteristics due to high resolution. The objective of this study is to evaluate the void ratio and elastic moduli based on elastic wave velocities and electrical resistivity. The Field Velocity Resistivity Probe (FVRP) is developed to obtain the elastic and electromagnetic wave profiles of soil during penetration. The Piezoelectric Disk Elements (PDE) and Bender Elements (BE) are used as transducers for measuring the elastic wave velocities such as compressional and shear wave velocities. The Electrical Resistivity Probe (ERP) is also installed for capturing the electrical resistivity profile. The application test is carried out on the southern coast of the Korean peninsula. The field tests are performed at a depth of 6~20 m, at 10 cm intervals for measuring elastic wave velocities and at 0.5cm intervals for measuring electrical resistivity. The elastic moduli such as constraint and shear moduli are calculated by using measured elastic wave velocities. The void ratios are also evaluated based on the elastic wave velocities and the electrical resistivity. Furthermore, the converted void ratios by using FVRP are compared with the volumetric void ratio obtained by a standard consolidation test. The comparison shows that the void ratios based on the FVPR match the volume based void ratio well. This study suggests that the FVRP may be a useful device to effectively determine the elastic moduli and void ratio in the field.

Signal measuring system to analyze ion concentrations in biofilm was constructed with ion selective microeleclrode and electrometer. In order to evaluate the performance and applicability of signal measuring system, the following characteristics, such as slope of calibration curve, detection limit, variation of response according to the time, and potentiometric selectivity coefficient, were investigated. The slope of calibration curve showed high degree of association for primary ion concentration. The response of the system was log-linear in standard solution down to $10{\mu}M$ and signal measuring system was not sensitive for interfering ions. In comparison with commercial electrometer, the fabricated electrometer system had similar tendencies for the slope of calibration curve, detection limit, and response time. Therefore the signal measuring system could be used to investigate ion profiles in biofilm as a cost effective and reliable measuring system.

An absolute interferometer system with multiple point-sources is devised for tile 3-D measurement of rough surface profiles. The positions of the point sources are determined to be the system parameters that influence the measurement accuracy, so they are calibrated precisely prior to performing actual measurements. For the calibration, a CCD camera composed of a two-dimensional array of photo-detectors was used. Performing optimization of the cost function constructed with phase values measured at each pixel on the CCD camera, the position coordinates of each point source is precisely determined. Measurement results after calibration performed for the warpage inspection of chip scale packages (CSPs) demonstrate that the maximum discrepancy is 9.8 mm with a standard deviation o( 1.5 mm in comparison with the test results obtained by using a Form Taly Surf instrument.

Background: Research on hot water extracts of medicinal plants that are easily applicable in the clinical setting is essential. To confirm the anti-inflammatory-related active compounds present in the hot water extract of Eriobotrya japonica leaves, ability to inhibit nitric oxide (NO) production was measured and active compounds isolated from the extract were analyzed. Methods and Results: Sovent fractionation by solvent was performed to identify the active compounds present in the hot water extract, and the ability of the extract and the fractions obtained to inhibit NO production was measured. Subsequently, based on the results of liquid chromatography (LC) profile analysis of the n-butanol fraction that had a relatively high inhibitory ability of NO production, six subfractions were separated around the main peak. Among the separated subfractions spectra from mass spectroscopy (MS) were analyzed and standard comparisons were performed on the compounds of the three main peaks on the chromatogram. NO production inhibitory activity of subfraction 2 identified as neochlorogenic acid was the highest with an IC₅₀ of 18.49 ㎍/㎖ followed by that of subfraction 5 identified as cryptochlorogenic acid with IC₅₀ of 25.82 ㎍/㎖. Conclusions: Our result, it was confirmed that several caffeoylquinic acids, including neochlorogenic acid and cryptochlorogenic acid present in the hot water extract of E. japonica leaves have an important role as compounds exhibiting anti-inflammatory activity.

This paper reports the GEM (Gateway to Educational Materials) project whose goal is to develop an operational framework to provide the K-12 teachers in the world with 'one-stop/any-stop' access to thousands of lesson plans, curriculum units and other Internet-based educational resources. To the IS-element Dublin Core base package, the GEM project added an 8-element, domain-specific GEM package. The GEM project employed the conceptual data modeling approach to designing the GEM database, used the Sybase relational database management system (RDBMS) to construct the backend database for storing the metadata of educational resources, and also employed the active server page (ASP) technology to provide Web interfaces to that database. The consortium members catalog lesson plans and other Internet-based educational resources using a cataloging module program that produces HTML meta tags. A harvest program collects these meta tags across the Internet and outputs an ASCII file that conforms to the standard agreed by the consortium members. A parser program processes this file to enter meta tags automatically into appropriate relational tables in the Sybase database. The conceptual/logical schemas of Dublin Core and GEM profile are presented. The advantages of conceptual modeling approach to manage metadata are discussed. A prototype system that provides access to the GEM metadata is available at http://lis.skku.ac.kr/gem/.

A large number of methanol-assimilating yeasts and bacteria were isolated from samples of soil, sewage, decomposed milk and spoiled sweet-radish pickles. Among the yeasts, one strain was selected and identified as a strain of Candida boidinii. In 1% (v/v) methanol Candida boidinii YF-3 grew well and could grow in as much as 5%. This yeast required boitin for grwoth. Maximum growth was observed at $30^{\circ}C$ and pH 6 in a semisynthetic medium. The productivity was 2.72g dry cells per liter in batch culture with 1%(v/v) methanol and the cell yield for methanol was $0.39\;gg^{-1}$. The specific growth rate was $0.11\;h^{-1}$ and the generation time was 6.4 hours. The protein content of the cell was 45.5% and total nucleic acid content was 5.9%. The amino acid profile was as good as FAO standard for food protein.

The present study was conducted to supply more scientific information for standardization of preparation method of Gyungdan and to determine the standard for manufacturing procedure adapted with mechanically impacting technology (MIT) for mass production. The optimum preparation condition for non-waxy Gyungdan adapted with MIT was 35% of water, 0.5% of wheat flour (w/w of soaked rice), and mechanically impacting for 10 min at 450 rpm. In the present study, standardization of manufacturing procedure for merchandizing of Gyungdan was established with width, weight, and height. Average of Gyungdan adapted with MIT at 90 rpm (stuffing speed) and 46.58 Herz (cutting speed) is 18.3 g of weight, 28.4 mm of height, and 32.4 mm of width. Hardness, as a main parameter of texture profile, of Gyungdan was maintained lower than 100 g up to 3 days at the storage of $20^{\circ}C$ and up to 70 days at the storage of $-20^{\circ}C$. And, it was performed to develop rice cake as meal-replacement adapted with MIT and sub-ingredients such as strawberry, pumpkin, and mugwort. Gyungdan prepared under controlling manufacturing condition of MIT was supplemented with 0-1.6% of sub-ingredients, respectively. In sensory tests, the best substitute ratios of strawberry, pumpkin, and mugwort were 1.6%, 0.8%, and 1.6%, respectively. With the results above, not-harden Gyungdan supplemented with sub-ingredients and various stuffs can be expected to application for wheat-substitute meal-replacement.

Background: Renal size is an important indicator in the diagnosis of renal diseases and urinary tract infections in children. Purpose: The purpose of this study is twofold. First, it aimed to measure the renal length and calculate the renal volume of normal Thai children using 2-dimensional ultrasonography (2D-US) and study their correlations with somatic parameters. Second, it aimed to compare the age-specific renal size of normal Thai children with the published data of their Western and Chinese counterparts. Methods: A total of 321 children (150 boys, 171 girls; age, 6-15 years) with a normal renal profile were prospectively recruited. All subjects underwent 2D-US by an experienced pediatric radiologist and the renal length, width, and depth were measured. Renal volume was calculated using the ellipsoid formula as recommended. The data were compared between the left and right kidneys, the sexes, and various somatic parameters. The age-specific renal lengths were compared using a nomogram derived from a Western cohort that is currently referred by many Thailand hospitals, while the renal volumes were compared with the published data of a Chinese cohort. Results: No statistically significant difference (P<0.05) was found between sexes or the right and left kidneys. The renal sizes had strong correlations with height, weight, body surface area, and age but not with body mass index. The renal length of the Thai children was moderately correlated (r=0.59) with that of the Western cohort, while the age-specific renal volume was significantly smaller (P<0.05) than that of the Chinese children. Conclusion: Therefore, we concluded that the age-specific renal length and volume obtained by 2D-US would vary between children in different regions and may not be suitably used as an international standard for diagnosis, although further studies may be needed to confirm our findings.
